  • Notes 
    • Since there does not appear to be a readily available consensus as to the wife or wives of Benjamin Horton, and since Benjamin is not in my primary line of research interest, I have deleted my previous entries here, and elected not to include names in this compendium. The references my be useful to researchers for further enquiries.

      Comment: There is a possibility that the Ann Budd referenced here is not the same person as a wife to the present Benjamin Horton. The Ann Budd of this source had a birth date of 5 Jan 1666.  This would make her some 39 years younger than the present Benjamin Horton.  Benjamin was referenced as "Benj. Horton, Junior."  In addition, the present Benjamin Horton died 3 Nov 1690, which would have been just a few years after his marriage of to the source's Ann Budd. It may be that Benjamin Horton/Ann Bud referenced here are of a later generation. Ann K. Winters indicates, however, that her research has not revealed another Benjamin Horton/Ann Budd combination.

      Barnabas Horton (1600-1680) was born and raised in England.  He first married in England in about 1622 to Anne Smith and they had children in England.  His first wife appears to have died in England in about 1630 before he immigrated.  He second married probably in England in about 1630 to Mary Langton and they also had children, perhaps some prior to immigrating and some after immigrating.  His second wife is thought to have died in about 1640 in Southold, CT.  He third married probably in Southold, CT in about 1640 to Mary South and they had children in Southold, CT.  It is not known for sure which of Barnabas Horton's (1600-1680) 10 children belonged to which mother/wife or the children's birthdates or birthplaces (especially those thought to have been in the middle of the birth order) and the birth dates and places in the FGS are guesses.
      TRADITION has it that Benjamin Horton (1600-1680) immigrated with second wife Mary Langton and children.  It is believed that they immigrated in the 1630s and landed and/or settled first at Hampton, MA.  It is not known how long they were at Hampton, MA, but by 1640 Barnabas Horton (1600-1680) and his family were at New Haven, CT and a part of a Congregational Church (Puritans) led by Reverend John Youngs.  This congregation purchased "Yennicott" on the northeastern end of Long Island, across Long Island Sound from Connecticut, from the Corchaug Indian Tribe in the summer of 1640.  On 21 October 1640 they landed at "Hashamamock" and it's name was soon changed to Southold.  The men who headed the settler families of this congregation that settled at Southold were John Youngs (minister and leader), Barnabas Horton, John Budd, John Conklin, William Wells, John Tuthill, thomas Mapes, Richard Terry, Matthias Corwin Robert Akerly, Zachariah Corey, and Issac Arnold.  Barnabas Horton (1600-1680) received a land grant in 1640 which included the land on which the Horton's Point Lighthouse is in the 20th century.  On this land Barnabas Horton built the first framed and shingled dwelling ever erected on the east end of Long Island.  Southold was part of the New Haven Colony initially.  Barnabas Horton served Southold as constable in 1654 and 1656 and 1659.  He was a Deputy (representative of Southold) to the General Court at New Haven in 1654 and 1656 and 1658 and 1659 and 1661.  Southold became part of the Connecticut Colony in 1662 and Baranabas Horton was listed as a Connecticut Freeman that year.  Barnabas Horton was a Deputy to the General Court at Hartford in 1663 and 1664.  He became a magistrate for Southold in 1664 and continued in this position until his death.  In 1673 the Dutch took over the area including Southold and in 1674 it was under English governance once again.  The English wanted Southold to be part of New York and the people of Southold wanted to be part of Connecticut.  By 1676, with land rights at stake, Southold yielded to the English and became part of New York.  Barnabas Horton was one of the Patentees of the Town of Southold in 1676 when land ownership was confirmed to the people of Southold by the English.
      TRADITION has it that Barnabas Horton (1600-1680) was large in stature and of a ruddy complexion and that he had fine social qualities.  He was a man of unquestionable character and great faith.  He was a strong advocate of civil and religious freedom.  He was one of the most prominent and influential men of Southold.  His will was dated 10 May 1680 and was proved 09 March 1681.  There are artifacts of Barnabas Horton that have been photographed and/or preserved: his old house or "castle" (western part built by Barnabas Horton and eastern two-story added by son Jonathan Horton; much photographed before being destroyed in 1879) was at the corner of Main Street and Horton's Lane, the Bible he brought with him from England, his old musket.  Barnabas Horton's tomb in the ancient part of the (Old Burying Ground" that is now part of the First Presbyterian Church was visible from the old house.  TRADITION has it that Benjamin Horton had the inscription (except for the date of his death) and the epitaph he wrote himself put on the tomb prior to his death:  "Here lieth buried the body of Mr. Barnabas Horton, who was born at Mousely, Leicestershire, Old England, and died at Southold, on the 13th day of July, 1680, aged 80 years" and "Here lies my body tombed in dust 'till Christ shall come to raise it with the just; my soul ascended to the throne of God, where with sweet Jesus now I make abode: then hasten after me, my dearest wife, to be partaker of this blessed life; and you, dear children, all follow the Lord, hear and obey His public sacred word; and in your houses call upon His name, for oft I have advised you to the same: then God will bless you with your children all, and to this blessed place He will you call." 
      Daughter Mary Horton (born about 1635) married at Southold in about 1653 to John Budd (1624-1684).  They settled permanently at Southold and had 6 children there.
      Daughter Mercy Horton (born about 1655) married at Southold in about 1675 to John Youngs (1635-1696).  They settled permanently at Southold and had 4 children there.
